The China Mobile Research Institution (CMRI) and Origin Quantum Computing Technology Co have realized the first case of algorithm verification based on a real universal quantum computer in China, scientists said, further validating the feasibility of quantum computing for applications in mobile telecom networks, especially the next-generation 6G.

Jiuzhang computer took less than a second for a task that the fastest classical supercomputer in the world would take nearly five years to solve.

Today’s mainstream encryption may be vulnerable within years instead of decades after Chinese researchers propose new code-breaking algorithm.

The actions of PhD student Zhong Hansen and four other students have been rewarded but the incident has drawn attention to an overwork culture among China’s researchers.
